Drawing on the most recent
knowledge of climate change impacts in the Alps
and experiences across the region, this report
analyses the risks that climate change presents to
the region's water supply and quality, identifying
needs, constraints, opportunities, policy levers and
options for adaptation. It extracts policy guidance
on adaptation practice and aims to assist regional
and local stakeholders in developing robust
adaptation strategies. The focus of the report is
on water resources and related adaptation, rather
than water-related extreme events like floods,
avalanches, landslides or mudflows, which are
already well covered by existing studies of climate
change impacts in the Alps.

This report is the annual submission of the greenhouse gas inventory of the European Union to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Kyoto Protocol. It presents greenhouse gas emissions between 1990 and 2009 for EU-27, EU-15, individual Member States and economic sector.

The chart displays changes in emission of heavy metals from manufacturing industries in water (expressed in kg of heavy metals equivalents) , and in production of manufacturing industries (expressed as the gross value added , GVA, in millions Euro) in Europe between 2004 and 2010.See Methodology section for more details.

Data about the EU emission trading scheme (ETS). The EU ETS data viewer provides aggregated data by country, by sector and by year on the verified emissions, allowances and surrendered units of the more than 12 000 installations covered by the EU emission trading scheme.

The bar graphic compares current (2005) and projected (2015 and 2030) chemicals production for 3 world regions in USD. The map precise the regions considered: OECD countries (darker blue), BRIICS countries (red), and rest of the world (pale blue).

Fluorinated gases, otherwise known as F-gases, are a range of industrial gases which have a powerful effect on the climate. As EU policy makers consider further proposals to limit the use of these gases, the European Environment Agency (EEA) has published data on their production, import and export.

The chart displays changes in nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) emission intensity of manufacturing industry between 2004 and 2010. Nutrient emission intensity is expressed as kilogram of nutrients equivalent (P) discharged in water per unit of production of manufacturing industries (expressed as one million Euro gross value added). See Methodology section for more details.
